Beauty by the Square Inch: where fine art meets interior design Lush, lovely, original paintings for your home, office or boardroom by award-winning artist, Miss J. Rebecca Trueblood Any size, any colors, many styles to choose from Artist's Statement: I create pieces that acknowledge and respond to the physical presence of the person viewing them. This comes from an uncertainty about my own place in the world; the urge to have a unique identity with clearly marked personal space conflicts with a longing for real intimacy and a feeling of being part of a community. In some pieces, there are details that will not read from across the room: you must get close to see them, much closer than you would to the face of a stranger. Colors may cozy up together or push violently. Spaces between shapes create varying degrees of tension. I take inspiration from everyday objects, anthropological images, microscopic life, and the surface of our planet, utilizing patterning and repetition that makes creation a meditative and obsessive act.

"Nowadays, we may think a sofa is only a sofa. But in the hands of the right designer, a sofa can become an object that speaks of wholeness, of the feminine, of infinity - and it can be made-to measure. This is the work of Dennis Duffy at his showroom south of Boston's Washington Street, DSCALE. ... His work incorporates what might be called the "softer side" of Modernism." D SCALE was a featured exhibitor in the AD 20/21 Show, Art & Design of 20th and 21st Centuries, held in Boston.
